Re: Returning Soldiers beig charged for baggage

Delta was just the one that the soldiers who youtubed this happen to be on. Turns out, before the hoopla, that all the major airlines only allowed three free bags for military returning from deployment. Not surprisingly, they've all upped it to four now.

Re: Laser pointers in the news

Some years ago I bought one of the green laser models from Wicked Lasers. I believe the model had four different power ratings and the one I bought was second from the bottom, about $40. At that time they'd give a range (don't remember what it was based on) and mine was given as 165 miles. Using it ...

Re: San Antonio get together

Sounds like we have enough interest, especially if we make it in June and try for somewhere between the two cities. The ranges I know of that are between the two are in Lockhart and New Braunfels. I might include Bracken on the far north side of San Antonio as in between, but then I guess we should...
